Selling the above mentioned full solid premium Blueridge BR-183 which I bought in Oct 2009. It is kept in its hardcase and in my 24x7 humidity controlled store room ever since i bought it. It is very well taken care of.
The condition of this piece is excellent (mint). This guitar has also been tonerited for more than 600 hours, which resulted in a very open, loud and responsive sounding. The saddle and nut have also been professionally changed to FMI (Fossilized Mammoth Ivory) for added sustain and balance. The new FMI nut has a slightly wider string to string slot clearance for fingerstyle playing. The stock dalmation pickguard was removed since day one and replaced with a removable transparent one (looks better to my taste).
